The Terminator (1984) ✦ Full-Length Watchalong Reaction

Hey folks! I'm so excited to finally bring you my watchalong reaction to The Terminator! Sorry this is being posted so late in the month. Turns out trying to commit to a TV series, three MCU films, and two other films, plus exclusive reactions is a LOT for just one person! 🀣 But it's here and oh gosh I'm so glad I watched it! Thank you for voting on it. I really want to watch Terminator 2 sooner rather than later... how do we feel about a reaction to it in February?

Thanks so much for watching! I hope this reaction was worth the wait. The edit will be shared as soon as it's ready! Y'all are the bestest. [Direct link here.]

The Terminator (1984) ✦ Full-Length Watchalong Reaction

Comments

I'll be watching the Special Edition! And you're welcome for pointing that out. 😁

I have watched this film at least 100 times and I have never noticed we can see Terminator's red eye through the windshield of the semi. So thank you for pointing that out. Also, when you watch Terminator 2, and if you decide to watch the extended edition (that would be my suggestion), I would advise to watch the "Special Edition" as it is the ONLY extended edition approved by James Cameron.

I'm glad you were able to watch along! And glad you enjoyed it.

I ended up watching the early access edited reaction to this movie as it was only available on streaming platforms I didn't subscribe to and I only have it on DVD. Then today I realized one of those platforms was included in my TV-distributor's package (I don't watch TV). So now I watched it again in full πŸ˜‚ I don't have much to add to what's already been said, but given when this movie came out I guess we can say that Arnold is the real Iron Man πŸ˜†

Is this the Special Edition? The only one that is available online for me is the Theatrical Cut (shortest runtime) and watching online is a requirement for me. I can always include a reaction to the other scenes after the reaction to the TC as I'm sure someone has uploaded them to YouTube.

Just one more thing, watch the Directors Cut of T2. Cameron himself said the directors cut is the version he wanted to do and he wanted to tell. If you consider to watch the rest as well know that, Cameron considered it finished after T2 but Hollywood wanted to milk the franchise and brought out the other Movies.

So awesome! Thanks for sharing.

I was 3 when this movie hit theaters. You absolutely nailed it when you spoke about this movie being an 80’s kid’s childhood, it certainly was mine. Not to mention my adulthood as well. I was probably 5/6 when I first watched this movie. I can remember my older sister covering my eyes at parts of it πŸ˜†

Thanks James. I think I'll slow down a bit in February.

I think she would/could find it intersting how to not treat a Franchise, especially with newer Movies but on the other Hand it could also be a big waste of time for her cause most People are not interested in the newer ones for obvious reasons.

End at T2 please

The big question is: will the other Terminator films beyond T2 appear on the docket at some point? I find them interesting as a sort of case study on how you shouldn't attempt to forcibly spin success into a franchise.

I just wanted to add that we appreciate you pumping out all this content for us, and I hope you don’t get burnt out with all of the work crammed into such a short time

Enjoy the watch!

Something to look forward to to get me through work today, thanks. I don’t think you’ll find many people who would object to T2 coming up soon.
